1. Good. I hope Amanpour has canceled Dick Armey's scheduled appearance.

This is no time to give the leader of the Teaparty a forum.

7. This is the perfect time to get the leader of the Teaparty on the air

But only with either Rachel Maddow or Keith Olbermann.

11. Oh - I disagree - especially with Christine. She will ask the questions that need to be asked.

And Armey needs to answer!

2. They are like vultures

3. Some songs just speak the truth...

I make my living off the evening news
Just give me something, something I can use
People love it when you lose, they love dirty laundry

Well, I could've been an actor, but I wound up here
I just have to look good, I don't have to be clear
Come and whisper in my ear, give us dirty laundry

Kick 'em when they're up, kick 'em when they're down
Kick 'em when they're up, kick 'em when they're down
Kick 'em when they're up, kick 'em when they're down
Kick 'em when they're up, kick 'em all around

We got the bubbleheaded bleach-blonde, comes on at 5
She can tell you about the shooting with a gleam in her eye
It's interesting when people die, give us dirty laundry

Can we film the operation? Is the head dead yet?
You know the boys in the newsroom got a running bet
Get the widow on the set, we need dirty laundry

10. exactly what I was thinking... nt

4. Just like the Weather Channel

They send some poor sucker to stand out and report in the middle of a hurricane.
It may look impressive as hell but it doesn't do any good whatsoever.

[EFerrari]

5. It's a little late for them to report this story.

It started the first time Palin used that language and they all just giggled. @ssholes.

[Tsiyu]

6. They are going to try to spin this for all it's worth

but it isn't gonna wash.

My fear is that any accomplice(s) be caught and identified before more copycat bullshit takes place.

Sometimes media presence and attention can exacerbate and attract the hyped-for-conflict sorts.

Let's hope the crazies decide to stay home.

And don't watch corporate media, BTW. It's garbage, the sort of gooey, nefarious manufacturer of the Palins of this world.

8. Oh is it M$M damage control time?

They LOVED the Teaparty all those fucking journalists...couldn't get enough of them.

9. Damn vultures.

[Raine]

12. They make me want to puke

:puke: I guess Ted Williams "the guy with the golden voice" is old news now. Thursday and Friday CBS and NBC were killing each other to film his reunion with his mother ... sick exploitative bastards! :grr:
